To all whom it may concern:

Be it known'that I, SYDNEY EUsrAon Tom- BLESON, a subject of the King of Great Britain, of 10 Grauworth Gardens, Kennin ton Park,'in the county of Surrey, England, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Jugs or other Receptacles of the LikeKind for Liquids, of w iich the following is a specification.

This invention relates to jugs, or other receptacles of the like kind, for liquids, and has mo" particular reference to that class of receptaoe or apparatus intended to contain two or inore llquids which can be poured therefroin simultaneously.

Such receptacles or apparatus as hitherto constructed and employed for. cfl'ervescing ,tingl against each 0t get beverages, have comprised two or more ves; sels combined together, or one vessel divided into two or more compartments, each being furnished with a spout but having a common'. point of delivery, so that in use the liquids owing therefrom were mingled and fe l together into the cup, glass, or other vessel.

My present invention has for its object a duplex jug, or vessel of the like kind, consisting of two separate parts having flat sides fiter so that when fitted toer they resemble in appearance an ordinary ju but if the two separate parts are filled with diflerent liquids, the liquid from either part can be poured out independently of the other, or the li uids can be poured out- {separately as desired, by the'ordinary act of from both jugs simu taneously.

The accompanying-drawing is in illustration of my invention :-Figure 1 being a'side elevation of a jug emhodyin" my improvements applied to a cofiee an mi k jug, and showing the pivoted part, or receptacle, in a vertical lane, and the fixed part, or receptacle, ti ted as in use for pouring out its contents. Fi 2 is a central vertica section, at right ang es to Fig. 1 illustrating both receptacles in their normal position.

in order to put my invention in operation, and as illustrated, I make of metal, earthenware, glass, or other suitable material, a jug a divided into two parts by a vertical plane mssing down the center, each part a, a having a flat side I) adjoining the dividing line, so that. when these two flat sides I) b are litled against each other, they resemble more or less in lppcarauce an ordinary jug, but each half forming an entirely separate vesso]. The foot 1: of the jug is, on the other -0ted to it, and the bracket hand, formed, or attached to, as shown, one part a only of the jug, while the spout is formed in two parts d, d (Fig. 1) eachcom stitutin a distinct and separate spout.

The andle e, however, which run he of the usual or other shape, is attache to'k(as illustrated)-or forms part ofon"e only of the two halves a of the jug a.

I use preferabl a frame or stand upon which the jug me e as described stands, and upon this stand or u on the foot 0 itself, I make and fix'an upright bracket or support f to the upper end of which is freely pivoted the half a of the jug a which is without the handle or the foot.

In the drawing I have shown the pivoted part a carried in bearin s f, f respeqtiyely formed at the upper end of one qf the firms of the bracket f and in the tint side of the fixed receptacle a (Fig. 2). The pivot is situated somewhat above the center of gravity of the half a" of the in" a which is pivbent or shaped to strongly support the pivoted part a". s i The body of the jug may be of any suitable shape, more or less spherical, (as'lshown), or having flat sides, t1 with the flat sides b, b which fit against each other as described. a jug made in two halves as described t different contents of the two halves a, a c n be poured out either simultaneously or pourin which in use.

.In the drawing, 9 is a. projection or knob fixed upon the pivoted out as from a jug of the usual shape,

it is desired to pour out the contents simultaneously, and m which case the jug bears the ordinary appearance.

h, h are hinged lids fitted respectively to the fixed and plvetcdparts a, a.

The details of construction and shape me be varied more or less as may be found a visable.

' What I claim as m invention and desire to secure by Letters .atent, isz- 1. The combination in a jug, or receptacle for li aids, of two separate vessels having flat sides fitting against each\ other, one of the parts hein ivoted between the adjoining flat side 0 t ie other part and a bracket e outer ones parallel it resembles in appearance when not part (ragainst which one of the fingers can be pressed when.
